Induction of differentiation of NB4 cells. (A) Expression of CD11b antigens on NB4 cells. NB4 cells were treated for 3 days with several concentrations (10−10 to 10−7mol/L) of either 1,25D3 or Ro-25 9716, and then analyzed by FACS. (□), 1,25D3; (⌾), Ro 25-9716. (B) Combination of ATRA plus either 1,25D3 or Ro 25-9716 on differentiation of NB4 cells. NB4 cells were treated with 1,25D3 alone (10−9 to 10−10 mol/L, □), Ro 25-9716 alone (10−9 to 10−10 mol/L, ⌾), the combination of either ATRA (10−7 mol/L) plus 1,25D3 (10−9 to 10−10 mol/L, X), or ATRA (10−7 mol/L) plus Ro 25-9716 (10−9 to 10−10 mol/L, □), and differentiation was determined by NBT reduction. Results represent the mean of three experiments with triplicate dishes.
